Bhagavad Geeta Swami Sharanananda ji’s loving and humble personality is a great source of inspiration to all that come in contact with him. His joyful exuberance and enthusiasm is contagious and his discourses are an uplifting experience for all.   Bhagavad Gita is the most popular and probably the single most influential text in Hindu philosophy. It is certainly one of the world's greatest scriptures. The message of Geeta is universal in its scope, and it opens the gate of deliverance to all without distinction. Lord Krishna states, "Through whatever paths men seek to come unto Me, I accept them through those very paths; all paths which men take, O Arjuna, lead ultimately unto Me only."
